The Island

Rating: 6/10 (26 July 2005)

A Action/Drama/Sci-Fi/Thriller about two people/clones Lincoln Six Echo/Tom Lincoln(Ewan McGregor,Big Fish)and Jordan Two Delta/Sarah Jordan(Scarlett Johansson,Lost In Translation)who escape there artificial life's.Ever since they were created they have been led to believe that a nuclear bomb went off and they are survivors in a sanitary environment.But in reality they are clones that are used for there organs.
Ewan McGregor(Lincoln Six Echo/Tom Lincoln) gave a OK performance definitely not the best he has ever done.Scarlett Johansson(Jordan Two Delta/Sarah Jordan)gave a pretty good performance one of her best yet.The rest of the acting was OK nothing special really.The directing was really exciting it had me on the edge of my seat during the 2 car chase scenes.THe screenplay was a little sketchy at times and the storyline was a little off the wall but i have to say that i liked it.
Best actor/actress-Scarlett Johansson
On the surface it was a action thriller but underneath the surface it was a political piece raising the issue of cloning-Jake Hyden
I gave this movie a 6 out of 10
Rated-(PG-13) for intense sequences of violence and action, some sexuality and language.
6/10
